Hi, I just got a Nikon D60 camera and bought the 4GB Ultra 2 SanDisk card to go with it and have a USB transfer (device or port?) and my macbook pro, iMac, and parents Dell are not reading the card. I tried to look elsewhere for the solution but am not having much luck. Please help!!

Thanks!

Did you install the Nikon Transfer software? I ran across this bit at dpreview.com:
It's not going to be a major issue for most users (given that a card reader is hardly a significant investment), but we were disappointed to see that the D60 doesn't support the Mass Storage Protocol, only offering MTP or PTP. This means Mac users cannot simply mount the card when the camera is attached (for drag and drop copying) but must use the supplied Nikon Transfer software.

Yeah, I installed it and used it to import the pictures. I was really hoping for the drag and drop advantage though. oh well. Thanks for the reply.
